Often I feel like any interactions I have with children there is nothing I can do that won't make my interactions be perceived as predatory or sexual. So I no joke most interactions with children the thought that I look like a pedophile runs through my mind. Holding a baby? I better watch out. Checking to see if a babies diaper in clean, I bet someone is going to worry I'm a groomer oh fucking well. Oh god, how am I supposed to clean a babies diaper than isn't my own baby and not look like I'm doing it for nefarious reasons shit. This post was literally spurred bc I clicked on a video where someone who sounds kinda like a child played and I thought, "oh god, am I sure I'm not a child predator?" God, cultural norms sure plan a ton of ideas into my and other peoples mind.

Narrative of queer Masc People being Pedophiles

Is this still a thing? Aren't you more on the twink side? My first image when I think of pedo is this guy from skrillex's clip (which itself is a problem, ugly middle age men arent pedos). A twink gay man would be so far down on my list of people prejudiced to be potential pedos.

I've had the displeasure of realizing it is lol. And yeah. I was less concerned about people confronting me and more that the thought goes thru my head which is interesting lol.

Stereotype for a thin young fashionable gay man.

as opposed to bear, which would be a "leather & moustache" type of gay man.

Pederasty seems to have been a reoccurring theme in Queer Anarchism - especially in "Individualist" currents - it's why most of the Post-left writers are "cancelled".

But it was also possibly a normal state of affairs in ancient societies, https://immediatism.com/archives/podcast/777-homosexuality-class-warfare-1-by-arthur-evans


Edit: Probably should have put a disclaimer. I was just putting information out, mostly wanted to link the "text/audio" which I thought was on topic.

Cancelled in quotes: As in the Authors are still read.

I don't know what point you're trying to make but it really looks like you're excusing child rape.

yeah I'm not into rape thank you very much.

edit: fuck is this "cancled" actually advocating for sexually abusing children is messed up. Fuck off with this appeal to ancient society so it makes it okay to abuse people.
